Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Marriott Bonvoy point worth?

Average value is 0.7–0.9¢ per point. Off-peak redemptions at high-end Marriott brands (St. Regis, Edition, W Hotels) can reach 1.1¢+. Avoid transferring to airlines at 3:1 — the value drops to about 0.4¢.

What are Marriott PointSavers?

Selected properties periodically discount their redemption rates by 20–30% off standard pricing. Booking these off-peak awards is the best way to maximize Bonvoy value.

Do Marriott Bonvoy points expire?

Points expire after 24 months of inactivity. Earning from a Marriott co-branded card or hotel stay resets the clock. A $1 purchase on the card counts as activity.
